Mission: Impossible - Fallout

[Dark Raven]

There are going to be some camera tricks like in Lord of the Rings or the Hobbit.

Apparently Cavill's manager has since confirmed him as the movies villain.

If this is true then it should give him the opportunity to flex his acting muscles a little more. He's got charisma in spades off camera but I feel he has yet to express that charisma to it's full potential on the big screen.

Maybe an ex lover of Ferguson's character that out to get her.

Cruise will have to protect her

Probably a former IMF agent turned bad guy. I mean, that never happens.

Maybe Tom Cruise will make Cavill be Willy Armitage as played by Peter Lupus in the original series. Another classic IMF agent to ruin by turning bad.

 

[jfurioso]

Cavill would fit the Armitage look.

 

[Dark Raven]

He would, but make him a new character. Why ruin another classic character like they did with Jim Phelps? Who's next on Tom Cruise's hit list? Rollin Hand? Barney Collier? Cinnamon Carter?

He's Napoleon Solo gone bad. Man from UNCLE crossover.

Henry is an excellent addition…his Instagram post regarding it was hysterical.

I recently rewatched Ghost Protocol and Rogue Nation and honestly GP does not hold up as well as I remembered. When I first saw RN I remember thinking that I loved it, but it wasn't as good as GP. But just having watched both back-to-back, Rogue Nation is just a better movie. I don't know if anything will ever top the Burj set piece in GP, and it had some cool gadgets, but otherwise it fell kinda flat for me. And while I do wish RN had a better sequence than the underwater stuff, overall it just felt like such a more tightly directed spy movie.

 

[samsnee]

Rogue Nation was definitely better than GP. I didn't think the GP third act was that great.

 

[RockSP]

My friend who is an RN said RN is better than GP on GP.

 

[Johnny-Oh]

Ghost Protocol is one of the best action movies in recent years. I think RN was pretty good but it was a bit slow at times. I can't believe people complain at the final action scene of GP, I thought that set piece was pretty fun, RN didn't even have a final set piece it was just people running lol

Btw I was listening to the GP soundtrack earlier and it's so awesome! I hope they bring Giacchino back to score this one.

Rogue Nation was a better film than GP, but they're both great, imo. I honestly feel like after M:I-2, the franchise just gets better with each installment. That is rare.

 

[Loki882]

GP arguably has better action scenes (although the ones in RN were great as well). But as an overall film, RN is better imo:

-The plot was deeper/more complex.
-It had a more espionage-esque feel.
-The villain was better.
-The female lead was better (I liked Paula Patton a lot actually, but Rebecca Ferguson played a more interesting character who got more to do).
-Etc.

 

[Jake Cassidy]

M:I-3 has the best villain.

 

[KRYPTON INC.]

The motor cycle chase in RN was fantastic and the opera fight and escape, along with Cruise's shirtless escape scene are tops in my book. GP has really little to recommend outside of the insta-inflato safety bag bit and the Dubai scene.

 

[Jake Cassidy]

GP has Paula Patton and that's enough for me.

 

[KRYPTON INC.]

Patton is a gorgeous pile of "blah" to me. She's beautiful...

And?

That's my take.

 

[Visceral]

Cavill will be Phillips son.

 

[AnneFan]

M:I-3 has the best villain.

Agreed. The interrogation between Cruise and PSH was unbelievable.

 

[Jake Cassidy]

Patton is a gorgeous pile of "blah" to me. She's beautiful...

And?

That's my take.

And what? She's ****ing hot. That's all I care about. t:

 

[DarthSkywalker]

One thing I love about Ghost Protocol is that I feel like it nails the idea of the team. RN feels more like a solo Ethan effort.

Still I love them both, and along with 3, they make a pretty great trilogy imo.

 

[Fallen Angel]

Yo ain't beating Phillip Seymour Hoffman's villain from MI3. The dude was legit crazy and was played by a fantastic actor .Gone before his time.

 

[Dark Raven]

Agreed. The interrogation between Cruise and PSH was unbelievable.

Unbelievable in the sense that it was unbelievable that they would resort to that kind of crude interrogation which was so ineffective when the TV series would never have even bothered with that. They would've tricked the person into revealing the information via some elaborate ploy where the target wouldn't even realise he's been manipulated into giving away the information.

The way Tom Cruise interrogated PSH was exactly the way that interrogators would interrogate the target and would typically fail. Then at that point the IMF would be called in to get the job done more effectively.

For example, the classic "Submarine" episode of Mission Impossible had interrogators trying to beat the information out of the target at the start of the episode. When that didn't work, it was then that the IMF were employed. They built a whole submarine set to trick the target into thinking that he was stuck in a dire situation under the sea. And when the submarine was about to capsize and the target didn't think he would make it to the surface, he insisted on giving Jim Phelps the information, while Phelps acted completely uninterested in knowing such information. It was only once the target climbed out of the escape hatch did he realise it was all a set and that he was tricked into giving away the information that he had so closely guarded all this time.

And there were many more episodes like that, but "Submarine" epitomised that type of elaborate ploy. And that's what they should've done in MI:3 instead of trying to beat the information out of PSH, which is completely un-Mission Impossible-like.

Speaking with CinemaBlend while doing some press for Life, Ferguson revealed that Ilsa will in fact be back for the next Mission: Impossible flick, and Ferguson is excited about returning to the character.

“I miss her. I think she is such an incredible, strong, independent, vulnerable human being, and I miss the stunt… I’m doing stunt work right now, so I’m not missing it. I’m on break for a minute. But it’s lovely going into it not knowing what the big sequences are going to be. Because they don’t really present it all at once, and then you train for it. You train in martial arts, and you learn the technique, and then you break it up, and from that comes movement. I’m going to New Zealand and Paris!”
